CONTINUING SOURCES 

FOR 

RESEARCH ON AFRICA 


PREPARED AS A WORKING PAPER 
JUNE 1952 


U S. Library of Congress 
European Affairs Division j 






To; The Librarian of Congress 


The growing importance of Africa in the international arena has 
made American scholars conscious of two "basic, related facts; American 
writing on Africa is scant and American libraries even lack information about 
sources for African studies in other countries. The Committee on National 
Needs of the Association of Eesearch Libraries, in the hope of remedying at 
least the second point, suggested to the Library of Congress the compilation 
of a list of scientific organizations that publish periodicals concerned with 
Africa, The survey was undertaken by the European Affairs Division, which had 
been made acutely aware of these problems in the course of the preparation of 
its recently published bibliographical guide. Introduction to Africa . We 
broadened the scope of the Committee’s req.uest to include organizations that 
publish regularly on Africa in monographic or pamphlet series, or in any 
other(Continuing form, as well as periodicals devoted in whole or consistent 
part to information relevant to African research. 

The execution of the survey was difficult because knowledge of 
sources was freq^uently as scarce as the information on Africa itself; much of 
the data had to be established from secondary references. It became apparent 
that a useful list could be prepared only with help from leading institutions 
abroad. I acknowledge with gratitude the understanding and generous 
assistance I have received from Mr, H, V. L. Swanzy, editor of the Eoyal 
Africam Society journal, African Affairs , from Mr, Georges Grandidier, perma¬ 
nent secretary of the Academy of Colonial Sciences in Paris, and particularly 
from Mrs. B. E. Wyatt of the International African Institute in London who 
made special effort to advise us in great detail. Improved by their many 
emendations and additions, this survey is herewith submitted as a working 
paper. Data will have to be added aad revised as information becomes availa¬ 
ble (to date no replies to our req^uests have come from Belgium, Spain euad 
Portugal), but I hope that even in the present form it will be a valuable 
instrument. 

The survey is organized in two chapters with a broad interpretation 
given to the descriptive titles. Part I is devoted to learned groups 
^private, semi-official and leading government research institutions) issuing 
serials, monographic series or otherwise publishing regularly in the African 
field. A few journals independently published but carrying related contri¬ 
butions of scholars are added. Standard official publications such as depart¬ 
mental reports and technical papers, for instance, those of geological or 
meteorological bureaus, are omitted. Classification is by area, beginning 
with a short section on international sources, followed by co-untries as out¬ 
lined in the table of contents. 

Part II is concerned with continuing published sources of a less 
scholarly nature, presented in two sections on sin area basis. The first 
section names organizations of a commercial, educational or special interest 
character; the second section lists the better known independent periodicals 
and the more popular organs of official information services. 

It was our intention to offer a reasonably comprehensive coverage 
and to list, where possible, publisher, periodicity and type of content, when 
the title was not self-explanatory. In a number of cases we have been unable 
to establish or verify facts through consultation of directories, special 
bibliographies in such publications as Africa , African Abstracts , Zaire . 
Bibliogrgfia missionaria , and other reference sources, and the collaborating 
institutions abroad have had nothing to offer. In these cases a q[uestion mark 
indicates that we suspect rather than know something about a publication or 
group.
